I love playing online tournaments.
Here's a few reasons why.
1) Prizepools. It's so exciting playing for huge amounts of money everyday, and when you play loads of tables you usually get a deep run and the sweat is awesome.
2) Bad beats, schmad beats. You get them all over the place but you just move on to the next hand there's no time to think or worry about them, it pisses you off for a second but then it's forgotten. Then you get lucky somewhere else and you're loving it! It is annoying when you're really deep in a comp and you bust in a horrible cooler/beat but strangely enough I just think "that sucks" and forget about it after a few minutes. I've had some sick beats on finals/vdeep recently and they've not bothered me at all.
3) Team morale. Playing sessions with mates and grinding together, sweating each others deep runs, all helping and supporting each other, it's great for morale and we always have a good laugh regardless of how the session goes.
I'm sure I'm being a total mug here and when I go on a horrible downswing you'll read the opposite post lol, but for now, I'm in love with mtts!

Well the logic is that if you play 20 tournaments, you should come top 5% in 1 in theory with 0 edge over the field. Although maybe top 5% isn't a deep run.
Came 100/6000 in the bigger 55 last night, was one tabling for like 2hours lol, loved it, even though I did shit and still lost like 600 on the day, really enjoyed the sweat.

one of us, one of us!
Once you get the online MTT bug it's hard to go back and grind any other form of poker! mtts ftw!

Hi Alex.
Any suggestions for another diary I can read? I'm an avid follower of yours but looking to branch out...
Thanks

Oh yes, I can. There's a new one started by Tom "WotRthechances" High only yesterday.
The boy writes wonderfully well, especially when reporting the successes of his heroes. Full of love the game and not a bad player, too - bound to be a gripping read.
The diary is called "Trying to get my message out there" and can be found here
http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=57716.msg1565369#msg1565369
Hope you, and others, enjoy.
Alex

In fact, a genuine suggestion, is Carla Goddard's blog
http://blog.whatsonpoker.co.uk/category/carla-goddards-blog/
Really enjoyable, some really comedy stuff in there...
